Question 1

How do I book a landlord gas safety check for my Staghills rental?

Accepted Answer

Call 07880 240138 during our working hours, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, and we will arrange a convenient time for your Staghills property. We can also note your renewal date so future checks are booked well ahead.

Question 2

Can I get a reminder before my certificate expires?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can note your renewal date and get in touch ahead of time, so your certificate never lapses. It is one less thing for a busy landlord to track, and it keeps your rental property continuously compliant.

Question 3

What gets checked during a CP12 inspection?

Accepted Answer

Every gas appliance, plus the pipework, ventilation and flues. We inspect all gas appliances, including boilers, fires, cookers and hobs, carry out a gas tightness test, and confirm the flues are working safely, in line with Gas Safe requirements, before issuing the certificate.

Question 4

How experienced is Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating with landlord gas safety checks?

Accepted Answer

Spencer Jordan Plumbing and Heating was founded in 2014 and has more than 10 years of experience as a Gas Safe registered engineer, including landlord gas safety checks for rental properties across Staghills and the wider Lancashire area.

Question 5

What if an appliance fails the safety check?

Accepted Answer

We make it safe and set out your options. If an appliance is found to be unsafe, we explain the issue clearly, isolate it if required for safety, and advise on repair or replacement so the property can be brought back into compliance.

Question 6

How quickly do tenants need to receive a copy of the certificate?

Accepted Answer

You must provide a copy of the current gas safety record to existing tenants within 28 days of the check, and to new tenants before they move in. We issue the completed certificate promptly so you can meet this deadline comfortably.

Question 7

How long is a CP12 certificate valid for?

Accepted Answer

A Landlord Gas Safety Certificate is valid for 12 months from the date of the check. We recommend booking your next check a few weeks before it expires to avoid any gap in compliance between one certificate and the next.

Question 8

Do I legally need a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) in Staghills?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you rent out a property with gas appliances in England and Wales, you are legally required to hold a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12), issued annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This covers all gas boilers, fires, cookers and other gas appliances in the property.

Question 9

Can you do the gas safety check if my tenant is not home?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in most cases. We can arrange access directly with you as the landlord, or via your letting agent, if the tenant is unavailable, provided suitable access arrangements are in place, and coordinate a convenient time that works for everyone.

Question 10

Is a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate the same as a boiler service?

Accepted Answer

No. A CP12 is a legal annual safety check covering every gas appliance, pipework and flue in the property, while a boiler service looks only at the boiler. Landlords need a current CP12 regardless of any separate boiler service.
